We divide 264779 by 71
We want to figure out the number of times 264779 can be divided by 71.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 71

Moving on to step 2:
71 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 26, we end up with 26.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 264 / 71

Advancing to step 3:
71 goes into 264 3 times with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 213 from 264 to get 51.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 517 / 71

Advancing to step 4:
71 goes into 517 7 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Deduct 497 from 517 and we're left with 20.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 207 / 71

Advancing to step 5:
207 divided by 71 is 2 with a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 372.0
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 142 from 207.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 65 and continue with: 659 / 71

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 659 by 71, we get 9 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3729.0
If we take 639 away from 659, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 200 by 71, we get 2 with a remainder of 58.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3729.2
Subtracting 142 from 200 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
71 can be fit into 580 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3729.28
Subtracting 568 from 580 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
71 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 49.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3729.281
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 71 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 71 fits into 490 6 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3729.2816
Subtract 426 from 490 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 640 by 71, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3729.28169
If we take 639 away from 640, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 71 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3729.28169
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 100 by 71, we get 1 with a remainder of 29.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3729.2816901
Subtract 71 from 100 to get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 14:
71 can be fit into 290 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3729.28169014
Deduct 284 from 290 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3729.28169014, with a leftover of 6e-09.
